Jon Denke 

Coeur du Christ Academy

The 5-foot-9, 150-pound sophomore rushed for 343 yards and five touchdowns on 20 carries, and caught one pass for 60 yards and a TD in the Saints' first victory in program history, a 54-26 win over Clark Fork last Friday. "Jon brings a unique combination of speed and power to our football team," Coeur du Christ coach Kellen Clemens said. "His positive attitude toward both his teammates and his opponents embody what it means to be a Saint."
